Opnieuw Machakos, of de moeilijke demografie van tropisch Afrika

Samenvatting

In a recent dissertation ('Some Demographic Data Collecting Methods as Applied in Rural Kenya,' Utrechtse Geografische Studies, 8, no additional publication information available) P. G. Blok concludes that a sharp decline in fertility in mortality levels has taken place in rural Kenya. It is argued that this conclusion is not substantiated by the author, due to inconsistencies in his data & insufficient demographic analysis. 5 Tables, 2 Figures. Modified HA.
